March Madness!!
Date: March 6th, 2009
Location: New York Sunrise/ Sunset: 5:58 / 5:59 Weather: Warm and sunny Temperature: 25/45 Wind: Calm Equipment Used: Avery® Power Hunter Blinds, GHG® FFD Feeder Lessers , GHG® FFD Feeder Actives , GHG® Hunter Series Lookers, Avery® Floating Gun Case, Avery® 6 Slot Decoy Bags, Avery® Guide Bag, Avery® DIY Lanyard, Avery® Power Flag, Avery® Field Caps, and Avery® Fleece Skull Caps. Hunters: Arliss Reed, and Avery® Pro-Staffer Ron Zega Journal Notes: Being that this was going to be our last opportunity to hunt Canada geese for the next 6 months, Arliss and myself were bound and determined to make it a good weekend. Unfortunately, due to the warm weather, intense hunting pressure, and south winds, we had been feeling all week, there were dramatically less birds still in the area that we were planning on hunting. Not letting that dampen our spirits any, Arliss picked out a muddy chopped cornfield that was holding about 60 birds, while I was loading up the truck with decoys and blinds. When the alarm went off at 2:30 am it felt like I had hardly slept at all, but we made the 90 minute drive to the field, and walked all the decoys and blinds 700 yards out into the field. We set out a small, very natural looking decoy spread, and spent a lot of time brushing up the blinds. Not long after sunrise, we could hear the geese getting up off the roost, and being that we had very few birds on the way to our field, Arliss decided to do some aggressive flagging at the distant flocks, which ended up working like a charm. We finished 4 flocks that morning in no time at all and I was lucky enough to shoot a band out of one of them. Despite the extra 100 lbs of geese, we made it out of the field just in time to miss the rainstorms predicted for the rest of the day.
